-#### 0.5.0 Breaking change
+### I2C multiplexing
+
+Sometimes you need to control more devices than possible with the default
+address range the device provides.
+This is possible with an I2C multiplexer e.g. TCA9548 which creates up
+to eight channels (think of it as I2C subnets) which can use the complete
+address range of the device.
+
+Drawback of using a multiplexer is that it takes more administration in
+your code e.g. which device is on which channel.
+This will slow down the access, which must be taken into account when
+deciding which devices are on which channel.
+Also note that switching between channels will slow down other devices
+too if they are behind the multiplexer.
